"Northern Grown" Seeds Are Best 
May's Mangel Wurzels and Sugar Beets 
ANY LAND that will grow a good crop of corn will produce a good crop of Mangels or Sugar Beets. No crop pays the tarmer and stock- 
. raiser better. 800 to 1,000 bushels to the acre is an ordinary yield, while with good culture double this quantity can be grown. 
They make the cheapest food for all kinds of live stock, horses, cattle, sheep, pigs, chickens, etc. 
MAY'S GIANT GOLDEN (,llus?^t,on) 
'HIS IS AN ENTIRELY distinct type of Mangel and highly prized 
wherever introduced. In England it is largely grown by dairy- 
men and sheep raisers; the former recommend it, while the latter 
claim sheep fed on it thrive better and appear in much finer 
condition. Its wonderful yield recommends it to every 
stock grower. Flesh is a light yellow and fine 
grained. Packet Sc., ounce lOc, ^-potmd20c.,
